The first contestant to buzz-in gives an answer if it is the most popular, his/her family immediately wins the face-off. Only answers said by at least two people can appear on the board. The host asks a survey question that was previously posed to a group of 100 people, such as 'Name the hour that you get up on Sunday mornings.' A certain number of answers are concealed on the board, ranked by popularity of the survey's responses. Each round begins with a 'face-off' question that serves as a toss-up between two opposing contestants. The minimum age to participate in Family Feud is 15, although every family must have at least one person who is 18 years or older. The original version of the show began with the families being introduced, seated opposite each other as if posing for family portraits, after which the host interviewed them. Two family teams of five contestants (reduced to four contestants for the 1994вЂ“95 season) each compete to win cash by offering answers to survey questions. Aside from television shows, there have been also many home editions produced in board game, interactive film, and video game formats.

Reruns of episodes hosted by Steve Harvey air on Game Show Network, as well as in syndication while reruns of earlier versions air on Buzzr. The program has produced multiple regional adaptations in over 50 international markets outside the United States.
